Action Platformer Shu Hits PS Vita May 23rd, DLC Release Detailed

Earlier this month, Twinfinite spoke with Publisher Coatsink about Shu’s impending Vita release and upcoming free DLC content. We can now confirm that the superb action platformer is Vita-bound on May 23rd. The upcoming DLC is available now on Steam, but will not be available on console until May 23rd.

The first three levels: Beneath the Ruins, No Turning Back, and Depths of Discovery will be followed by a further three levels, which will coincide with the game’s launch May 23rd release on PS Vita.

Coatsink has confirmed that the Vita version will be cross-buy, making it free for players who have already purchased the game on PS4. As well as including the all-new DLC levels, the PS Vita version will also include the exclusive trophy area: The Refuge.

Developed by Secret Lunch and published by Coatsink, Shu released late last year across Steam and PS4. The game has enjoyed critical acclaim for its gorgeous hand-drawn art style and tight platforming gameplay, and it’s short, intense levels should be well suited to quick rounds of portable gaming.
